Get Involved
Whether you're a vendor, partner, or volunteer, there are many ways to be part of Urban Food Fest
Mission
We're building the platform where food culture comes alive, and gets seen the way it deserves.
Our Story
Urban Food Fest (UFF) began in 2017 as a campus event, before growing into a continuous food culture platform, connecting chefs, food entrepreneurs, creators, brands, and communities through shared food moments, from campus editions to city pop-ups to flagship city experiences.
UFF gives food entrepreneurs and vendors a stage to grow visibility and reach. It gives brands a way into food culture that isn't a billboard, it's a live, engaged audience. And it gives our community, Urban Foodies, recurring reasons to gather around food.
To date: 30,000+ attendees reached, 20+ brand partnerships, 5+ cities covered, 100+ SMEs supported.
Our Values
The principles that guide everything we do at Urban Food Fest
Passion for Food
We celebrate food in every form it takes, from traditional to reinvented, loud and unapologetic.
Community First
Building connections between food
lovers, vendors, and chefs is at the
heart of everything we do.
Excellence
We're committed to delivering the
experience we promised, every
time, with no exceptions made.
Innovation
Constantly reimagining our formats so every edition feels new, not a repeat of the last.

Urban Food Fest (UFF) is a food culture platform that started with one city, and one community of people who showed up for food.
We're building toward something bigger: a platform that connects food culture across Africa, not bound to one city or one edition.
Every UFF experience, wherever it happens, is a step toward that, one shared meal, one festival, one city at a time.
